Toppling Goliath coming to MA?

The trading forum is over here.

 

Picked up a 4 pack of Sue and a bottle Hopsmack and King Sue today at Wegmans in Chestnut Hill. Had to ask for it and the person helping me went to the cooler to get it. Not sure how much was left.

 

The manager at Yankee Spirits in Sturbridge said they are supposed to get a delivery twice a month.

 

I picked up a 4-pack of Pompeii at Spirited in Lenox last Friday, but there was only one pack left after, so I'm sure it's gone. I do believe I saw some Pseudo at Plaza Package in Great Barrington on Wednesday, but not 100% on that.

 

Plenty of King Sue and some other TG at Wine and Cheese in Somerville

 

The state should be getting another delivery in 2 weeks. We heard there should be a couple new beers coming, but haven't been told exactly what yet. We have asked and were definitely told no stouts are coming for awhile.

 

Still haven't seen any in western mass, The Beer shop in EL got like one case of each and it was gone fast. Funny you hear of grocery stores out east loaded with it.

 

will King Sue be in four packs this run?

Fresh Hopsmack and King Sue bombers at Lincoln Liquors in Bedford, along with 4-packs of Psuedo Sue and Dorothy. Bombers were $16.99/ea. They're in the very back of the store in the refrigerators that usually have bombers of Clown Shoes stouts and whatnot... the PS 4-packs are in the refrigerators on the left wall from the entrance, near the back. They also have bombers on the warm shelves in the row with Pipeworks.

 

KS bottled on 2/19, Hopsmack on 2/14

 

I can't get over $17 for a bomber of a DIPA.

 

Same dates listed in post #81 from back in February.

 

They were new to the store, probably had been at the distributor the entire time. IDK.

 

I'll stick to trading for TG beers -- cheaper and fresher.....

 

Does anywhere have KS 4 packs yet? Talking outside of MA

 

The next batch they brew is supposed to be in cans for the 1st time (next month)

 

Honest question here - Doesn’t shipping beer cost a lot of money, which would impact to overall beer price?

 

yea - I factored that in -- in addition to the manpower and driving around required to locate and buy MA TG beers before they disappear. Not interested in chasing beers at liquor stores -- and dealing w/the behind the counter BS -- and the hit or miss nature of the whole process.
